Pros: free traffic info, bright screen, photo maps of junctions

Cons: none

"This is an excellent Sat Nav unit. Very easy to set up and use with Garmin's straightforward interface. I actually prefer this to the large screen unit factory fitted in my car. Nice and bright and very good audio quality too. The traffic information is subscription free and works in most areas without the use of the additional aerial. Satellite connection is very quick."

Pros: simple interface, fuss-free use, clear large screen

"I bought this sat nav when Halfords had it on a half-price offer. Turns out this was maybe a little stretch of the truth (in terms of price) but nonetheless I got a great sat nav for a good price.

I came to it from a TomTom and at first found the Garmin user interface a bit simplistic and featureless. However, I have come to regard this as a positive thing as I rarely use any advanced features and for getting from A to B, perhaps via C, the simple-to-use, simple-to-view interface is perfect. It has navigated successfully all over the UK and France and never failed to find satellites (although after any lengthy time of non-use it takes a little time to acquire them).

The traffic system works well too; it's supposed to need the power cable plugged in to work (since this includes the required FM aerial) but given time it will often pick up traffic data even when used stand-alone. The battery lasts most journeys and the unit slots easily into and out of the mount, which is secure on the screen."

"my partner and i bought a garmin the same day , within a week we both had full refunds due to the sat navs not picking up satelites."

"Bought this to give me assistance when navigating around various city centres that Im not familiar with, especially useful for when certain roads are closed due to accidents etc, where this sat nav automatically diverts youwell in advance, Excellent for alerting you of fixed and mobile speed cameras and alerts you if your going too fast. Also alerts to red light cameras.So simple to use. A very good buy and large clear screen to tell you which lane to get in within plenty of reaction time."

"Having purchased my first satnav, a Garmin, I am impressed with how easy it was to set up in my car and use. I registered the product with Garmin and found it easy to update the maps and add a few extra features. I used it for the first time for a trip to a new golf course some 50 miles away and although some of the route was difficult the satnav made it an easy journey, even advising me which lane to be in for junction interchanges on the motorway. I am certainly happy with my buy. I have a life time update feature with this purchase which should come in handy."

Only 10 routes but many more can be stored on a memory card and imported very easily.Great for finding schools, points of interest, hotels, banks etc. Also has bluetooth, so hands free calling is a doddle.A great purchase!"

Pros: photo real junction

Cons: cant think of one

"excellent product,got me to a real trickyplace in birmingham,couldnt get thereonmy own.took me straight to the door.photoreal is great!took me off m6 when traffic wasbad.dont leave home without one.mat @stockport thanks for your help,great guy."

"I have to agree with Trukker and Meeper. This is a terrible SatNav. Although i never had an issue with the Satellites, (only used it for 1 day though) Again like the Nulink it gave out Traffic reports when IT decided. Slow to update routes.As a Pro trucker also i bought it to avoid delays and for its 'features.' It is very easy to use, clear screen, accurate, Lane assist is very clear.However, IMO it has too many leads with it. It has the main power lead, but it also has an FM lead you have to plug into the FM receiver in the power lead to get the traffic updates, so you end up with yards of lead trailed all over the Dashboard!Having read Trukkers review i tried the Navman Tourer. (Plz read my review on that)Again Staff at Shoreham very helpful. (Fred) Thx."

Pros: can't think of any

Cons: can't find satellites most of the time inaccurate

"We bought this to replace our Navman which they say cannot be updated. It was a disaster. It's a terrible sat nav. Don't bother buying it. We updated the maps from the outset so we knew we had the latest ones, yet when we switched the Garmin on, even 20 miles along the road it still could not find any satellites, on the odd occasion it could find a satellite it kept loosing it soon after and spent the whole journey thereafter saying satellite signal lost. I put our old sat nav on at the same time and it found the satellite in exactly the same conditions in less than a minute!, If you plugged the Garmin 1440T in to charge it in the car it stopped giving directions all the time it was charging and showed it was charging (unlike our old NAVMAN which would give directions when it was charging or plugged into the cigarette lighter.

We drive a lot in France but also on the rare occasion it could find a satellite, the pronounciation of French roads was so bad we could not work out what road the sat nav was saying or meaning, e.g for a flippant example, if the road was 'route de Mange Tout', it would say maan-gie (pronounced as in the unfortunate condition when cats and dogs lose their fur and an y at the end) and towt," (pronounced by someone selling black market tickets), = nothing like the real pronunciation, and in a real 'giving directions' sitauation with a real French named road, it was **not** 90 percent of the time saying anything understandable you could say oh that's the road its just said - its over there. I've no idea what it does in other countries whose roads are named in other languages but our experience is that it does not bode well.

It also often got addresses wrong so if you set it to go to 14 xxxxx street, when you turned into the drive of that house it would say that was no 22 when it was not. It could not find our house in the UK, it could not find our holiday home in France.....

It failed to find a number of addresses we tried it on. Although the maps had just been updated it could not find a road on a housing estate or on another occasion a road on an industrial site in La Rochelle that had been there at least 8 years!!. It has a list of 'places of interest' and under that category there is one for " transport". We were trying to work out how long it would take to get from our house to Portsmouth car ferry port. ,.... but incredibly there were no ferries listed at all under "transport", but trains, taxis planes you name it but no ports or ferries! The ferries were eventually found after about an hour search and further help from a halfords store under something like "other...." Not very intuitive, very hidden, and a pretty stupid and useless place to put them. I'd give up with this one.The instructions are very poor as well even if you download the ones found on Garmin website on line. It was hard to find out where to plug in the traffic pickup and only later on did we find that you plug it into the transformer on the charging unit because the instructions were so poor....and we never managed anyway to get any traffic information from it. That part just didn't appear to work. Don't buy it. Ournearly 5 year old Navman with its out of date maps is far better than the Garmin and could still find where we were far quicker than the Garmin.Both my husband and I use this but there isn't a space on the review form to put that more than one person might use it."

Cons: very little instructions with the unit, voice announces the wrong road name* see main list, motorway junctions come up too soon, can't seem to "go to centre" of a town

"Wanted to up date an old Tom Tom that I had for about 3 years. I wanted traffic warnings and re routing which this had and I didn't want to pay extra as I would have had to do if I'd got the new tom Tom. Also I wanted to be shown which lane to get into at motorway junctions. Nice clear screen and bright enough. Clear instructions verbally.The photo of the motorway junction comes up too soon, by the time you get there you have forgotten what the photo looked like, should come up again for my liking. When traveling on a country road and making a turn the voice tells you to turn onto the name of the next major road that might be miles away yet as it doesn't have a name for the country road, this is confusing. Hardly any instructions with the unit. With my old Tom Tom I could ask it to find the "centre" of a village or town if I didn't exactly know where I wanted to go, but this unit needs an address before you can prog it to get you to a town or village."
